Recently lost my job which took me a long time to get, so I'm looking to find a van in case I become homeless. Right now living in a rented car in so cal. So much to deal with I alternate being overwhelmed...well, mostly am overwhelmed. I'll post separately about buying the van, but am grateful for the info here.<br>

Welcome phoenix900! Glad to have you....be sure not to let the cost for that rental build up too&nbsp; much on you...<br>Bri<br><br>

Welcome aboard Phoenix. Sorry to hear that you lost your job recently; the job market is a pain right now to find a decent living. Nonetheless, dwelling in a van or even a large car just may be the ticket to financial freedom. Go for it &amp; keep your chin up. We're pullin' for ya. We're in this all together!&nbsp;<img border="0" align="absmiddle" src="https://vanlivingforum.com/images/boards/smilies/wink.gif">

Hi and welcome, Phoenix. Hang in there, and be sure to show us pics of your van when you get it!

Welcome Phoenix. Like XJ700 said, this may be a blessing though it may not seem so at the moment. Becoming debt free and downsizing has been the best decision ever for me! Think about it.

<p>Hang in their Phoenix...If you feel like your at the bottom you should realize the only way to&nbsp;go is up!&nbsp; I hope your trip up is enlightening and leads you to some place better than you ever thought you'd be.&nbsp; And...welcome to the posts.</p>

Thanks for the welcome. I love your quote bk2valve and yours too dirty Jeeper. So good to think I have support. I was homeless for a month before I got my last job and it was harrowing, but when I think what I've coped with the last few years...I've gained.&nbsp; Thanks again<br>
